Tsunami Traffic Machine is a comprehensive
Traffic Generation course created by Alvin Huang &
Joel Chue.

I  purchased a couple of their products before and
they always over-deliver.

In the beginning I found the  internet marketing
business to be ‘mysterious’ at best. Sales were few and
far between.  If I got at most 20 visitors on average
in a day, I was ecstatic. Even though I spent months
on research and created great products, there
simply wasn’t enough traffic!

Determined to change the situation, when I received
Alvin & Joel’s offer on Tsunami Traffic Machine, I
decided to check it out.  Was I surprised.

So here’s what you can find in their package:

Tsunami Traffic Machine Manual
A 62-page eBook filled with executable plans
that you can use immediately to start generating traffic.
Tsunami Traffic Machine is free of fluff and very clearly
explained.  They go through the methods and principles,
it was fun and informative, and easily understood.

Tsunami Traffic Machine Videos
A set of 8 videos explaining what is covered in the manual.
The videos are presentation slides made in PowerPoint with
voice over lessons that paint a clear picture. I, for one, learn
better when I listen … so I really liked how they tied the videos
into the written manual.  These videos are educational tools
that helped my understanding and contributed to the enjoyability
of  the course.

Tsunami Traffic Machine Process Map
This is a printable mind-map which summarizes the concepts and
gives you an overall picture of how to  implement the techniques
taught in the modules.

(I actually printed this out and pinned it to my wall!)

This was the best $17 investment for my marketing venture
I’ve made so far.  It’s a terrific deal.  There is a ton of information
here, some was known to me, but most of it was new.   Implementing
these concepts on my site was easy. It was definitely worth the money.

Skeptical? Why not look at the website and judge for yourself:

  • GVO INSTRUCTIONS:  Install a WordPress blog on your domain

    An alternative to creating website design and website building, is to install a WordPress blog right on your new domain.  In a few minutes you can install it and begin posting and publishing your information.

    Follow these steps to create the site:

    I.  Access your Cpanel for your domain

    1. Go to your webhost manager,
    2. Click  ’List Accounts’,
    3. Locate your domain and
    4. Click on the CPanel icon to the right of the domain name
      HINT:  ”it’s blue and looks like a CP”.  This will open the control panel for your domain and will automatically login.

    II. Secure the Settings.

    1. You need to logout of your cpanel and
    2. Then choose to login again.  It’s an administration thing.

    III. Final Installation Steps.

    1. Once logged in for the second time, look at the icons on your control panel.
    2. Scroll to the bottom and
    3. Select the Fantastico icon.
    4. Click on the icon.
    5. You will see a new menu on the left.
    6. Locate the WordPress script.
    7. Click on the WordPress link.
    8. Follow the instructions to install your Word Press blog.

    IV. Important!!

    IMPORTANT NOTE:  You will need to create an admin username and password, PLEASE WRITE THESE DOWN.  You will need them to login to your blog once you install it.

    When the installation is complete, the system will give you notice and at this time you can choose to have the installation information emailed to you.

    I recommend you do this!

    V.  Things to know about when setting up your Word Press blog

    Ok, now that your Word Press blog is installed, you want to learn a few key points about managing the info on your blog.  With your WordPress blog, you can create “pages” (which are static) AND “posts” (which change every time you post a new article).

    1. Pages vs Posts
      With an installed WordPress Blog, you have the option of posting articles just like you do on a Blogspot blog, but what I like about WordPress is I can also create pages and I can set up the system to open a page instead of a post.  The default is usually to your latest post.
    2. You can have several WordPress blogs going depending on the specific categories you discuss on each.  Its a good way to interact with like-minded people AND a good way to find a target market for your internet business.
    3. On my main site here, I have pages setup for “about me”, “subscribe”, and a “resources” page where you could even refer between blogs to your own posts when the subject matter is appropriate.

    REMEMBER:  Pages are static: but blog posts change every time you post a new article.

    VI.  Word Press Blogging Tips

    ADDING WIDGETS!  You can add widgets to your blog, much like adding Gadgets on a Blogspot blog.  Here’s how:

    1. Go to  your WordPress back office,
    2. Click on Appearance and
    3. From the Appearance menu, you will see the Widgets option.

    CHANGING TEMPLATES!  You can choose from a wide range of templates – something to suit everyone’s taste.  Remember, your blog is your personal space where people will get to know you.  Here’s how:

    1. From the Appearance section, choose Add New Themes and
    2. Select from the many themes available.  You will be able to install the theme then activate it in just a few simple steps.  It’s also easy to change your theme if you choose to.
